* {{Foil}}: Façade and Link are both foreign visitors to Hyrule, they both conflict with Ganon, and they both show attraction to Zelda. However, the episode mostly focuses on the differences between them. Link wears a simple green tunic and cap while Façade is regally dressed. Link carries a sword that fires zaps while Façade wields a common crossbow. Link is a genuine hero in spite of his crude behavior while Façade is a well-spoken fop who'd endanger innocent lives as long as he keeps himself clean.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: When Link holds out his hand for Façade to shake, the prince recoils because it's gotten dirty from Link being dragged around by the Octorok. This is an early hint to the audience that he won't be so quick to play Prince Charming for Zelda if it means going through a swamp.

Prince Facade is very clearly vain and petty af but at least from what I can tell he isn't actively going out of his way to harm others for personal satisfaction.

However, it turns out that Façade is too vain to dirty his clothes, even to save Zelda, which destroys her admiration.
* TheSociopath: Prince Façade has no emotional connection to anyone, does not care if people are harmed by his putting top priority on his appearance, has enough superficial charm to sway anyone sans Link, and has a need for stimulation expressed not only by his wandering lifestyle but by his need to preserve his image and receive praise from everyone else.

Ran with ''WesternAnimation/TheSuperMarioBrosSuperShow'' live-action episode "Wild Thing".
!!This episode includes examples of the following tropes:
* TenMinuteRetirement: For a good portion of the plot, Zelda ignores Link and fawns over Prince Façade, making Link extremely jealous. Her laughing at Link's klutz attack after he tries to impress her with his ImpracticallyFancyOutfit is the last straw; he calls it quits as the Triforce's protector and leaves the castle without telling her. But when he hears her screaming after Ganon's minions have taken her, he hesitates for only a few moments before racing back to the rescue. ("I'm such a sucker!")
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Subverted. Prince Façade seems to be better than Link at every turn. He's more refined, skilled, strong, instantly has Zelda swooning, and soon she's practically forgotten Link exists. Fortunately for Link, Façade eventually shows his true colors as a PrinceCharmless when he refuses to rescue a kidnapped Zelda because he didn't want to get his clothes dirty. Link saves the day and Zelda gives Façade the boot.
* BookEnds: When Façade first arrives, he picks up a jewel Link was after with the comment that he deserves it for defeating the Octorock, putting them at odds from the start. After Zelda yells at Façade for refusing to rescue her, he trips backwards into the mud, dropping the jewel. Link picks it up.

* TheDissenterIsAlwaysRight: Zelda is instantly smitten with Façade, and her father treats him in a friendly enough way. Only Link dislikes him from the start. He turns out to be right when Façade reveals that he absolutely refuses to dirty his clothes, even to save Zelda from being kidnapped. However, given that they're both attracted to Zelda, Link could have been simply RightForTheWrongReasons.

* HateSink: Prince Façade is an arrogant, self-absorbed fop who cares for his image more than the victims of evil. Link instantly dislikes him, and Zelda is infuriated when he shows his true colors. Not even Ganon has anything nice to say about him, referring to his arrival as "showing his sickeningly handsome face".
* HeIsNotMyBoyfriend: When they first meet Prince Façade, Zelda introduces Link as a string of titles, causing his status to deteriorate down to "someone I know slightly." Later, she forgets he exists while talking to Façade.
* ImpracticallyFancyOutfit: Link wears a big and heavily starched nobleman's ensemble in an attempt to prove he can be just as charming and high-class as Prince Façade. It doesn't work in part because the boots don't fit and make him trip. Everyone laughs, including Zelda, sending Link into temporary retirement.
* LandInTheSaddle: After calling it quits as guardian of the Triforce, Link jumps down from his tower window and bounces/backflips off a tent canopy below before landing in the saddle of his horse Catherine. She is startled by this and tries to throw him off, but he stays on and calms her down.
* LaserGuidedKarma: Prince Façade refuses to save Zelda from being kidnapped when the monster takes her through a swamp. Once Link rescues her, she yells at Façade and Façade flinches and falls backwards into the mud, thus getting his "hero clothes" dirty anyway.
* MeaningfulName: Prince Façade. He's all about appearances.
* NearVillainVictory: Ganon's mooks successfully capture the princess and reach the swamp before Prince Façade can stop them, leaving him dithering on the bank while the mook takes Zelda to his master. Ganon would have won if Link hadn't heard her scream for help and come to the rescue.
* PrinceCharmless: Zelda is charmed by Prince Façade of Arcadia. She thinks he's PrinceCharming, but what's BeneathTheMask is revealed when he won't rescue her from Ganon's minions... because they're in the mud and he doesn't want to get his clothes dirty.
